[Dell Streak 7] dfspot:
I have read and tried everything

I attempted the adb method but can't get into fastboot... I believe I got the adb commands correct and I don't get an error but my the restore is not taking... at the reboot it goes right back into CWM 3.0.2.0 here's my adb shell read out...

C:\android\platform-tools>adb shell

C:\android\platform-tools>adb shell

~ # flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p2/sdcard/boot_orig.img

~ # flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p1/sdcard/recovery_orig.img

flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p1/sdcard/recovery_orig.img

usage: flash_image partition file.img

I don't know what else to do, I can't find a thread that stays on track long enough to follow this issue all the way thru... please help... I have read and tried everything, i can't find a clear set of alternatives... am i missing a step?
[Dell Streak 7] white99:
ya, i'm stuck in the same situation. I either get a "error -1" or it says "usage: flash_image partition file.img"

does getting "usage: flash_image partition file.img" mean the file was successfully flashed?
[Dell Streak 7] daveid:
You are missing the space between mmcblk3pX and /sdcard.
[Dell Streak 7] white99:
ok, thats what i thought. when i do it the other way i get the "failed with Error: -1" any ideas on that. also if i send it back to t-mobile under the warranty, they won't send it back as damaged since i had CMW installed o it will they?
[Dell Streak 7] ledfreak3d:
great how to
[Dell Streak 7] ledfreak3d:
humz mine wont flash at all
[Dell Streak 7] prudviraj:
Guys,

If someone can help people struck here like me, it would be great.. i get the same -1 error message... when i run the second command. the first one passes through and i get a # for flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p2 /sdcard/boot_orig.img.

When we downloaded the file boot.img, how would boot_orig.img work? am i missing something?

The second command throws me an error..

Guys really waiting for help... bricked my streak in hours after i brought it.. :mad:

Hey guys sorry to ask u a noob question, but can anyone give me an ideea how to remove/unistall CWM Recovery so i can send back my Streak 7 for repair? I have installed CWM thru fastboot an i am currently on stock 2.2.2 rom. Or if there is a thread that i didnt find please a little help would be much apreciated. :)

IMG Reposted?

Hi Folks,

A couple of people have posted that the boot, recovery, and system image links respond with a "404 not found" error. This is still the case.

I recall reading somewhere else that the images may still live on the SD card on the device. If this is true does someone know where in the file structure they may be?

If not, does anyone know where to obtain the images?

Currently I'm in CWM reboot hades on my Dell Streak 7. Tried the Dell OTA update for Honeycomb...didn't know that was a BAD thing until it was too late. :(

I've tried flashing boot and recovery images from a backup I'd made earlier, but no luck, so thatruth's excellent guide here: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1006829 doesn't help much...unless I can get the recovery and boot images.

So to reiterate:

I can get to CWM and clear the caches and flash a recovery.

I can communicate with the device via ADB and have flashed it with the backup images.

I can mount the internal SD card via CWM and my pc.

After flashing with the backup images, Fastboot still does not recognize that the device is connected, and the device does not apper to go through the 'format steps'.

Cheers,

L2

Found 'lightly modified' roms (thank you DJ Steve!) for a T-Mobile streak on another XDA thread. Flashed using adb, and tadaaaa, it booted! sliiiight problem. Will not boot into recovery and no wireless.

Managed to install rom manager (AKA ClockWorkMod) via ADB but CWM wan't an internet connection to install the recovery rom. grrrrr.

One of the other modifications (aside from root) by DJ Steve is the installation of 'BusyBox', This actually seems to complicate things for me because I don't really know how to issue ADB commands from the BusyBox shell. I get a lot of 'invalid command' and the like... I was able to install CWM OUTSIDE the adb shell (adb install rommanager) but once I'm in the shell (adb shell)I don't know how to issue the proper commands.

What I want to do is either remove busybox, or use ADB inside busybox to flash the CWM recovery rom, then flash my backup roms. (and hopefully return to full functionality.)

Any suggestions on how to use ADB commands inside of busy box to flash a rom?
[Dell Streak 7] FlukeATX:
Can anyone upload the stock rom images? I need to flash back to stock :\
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zammo76:
I've backed up my phone quite a few times and now want to tidy up my restore list so I only have one pointing to the original HTC Sense restore and another pointing to the custom ROM I've chosen. Is there a way to do this? Also has anyone any idea what size each back up is?

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Either delete them with a file explorer (sd/clockworkmod/backup) or use rom manger. Size depends on rom and how much apps where installed.
[GT540 Optimus General] shadow wave:
I can receive calls when the wifi is off, when I turn it on it can't receive calls any more. The wifi works fine and I can use the internet. It shows 3g signal but not the H that shows it is connected to mobile data and all calls just go to voicemail. When I turn the wifi off the wifi data connects straight away and I can receive calls again.

Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks

If it helps I am using the latest Carphone warehouse 2.1 rom.

Install titanium backup and delete tethering manager.apk

This answer could have been found by doing a search.
[Captivate General] robertoaste:
Coney Killer,

I did search for it, I jut did not found one. But Thanks for your kindness

And Your method worked.

Thanks.
[Captivate General] fldude99:
Cut the guy a little slack. Try searching a forum in Spanish first
[Captivate General] doner03:
Thanks for the info. It works great
[Captivate General] docflower:
Well that was about the easiest fix in the world, right behind turning the phone on because it wont call out when its off :).

I have not used the mobleAP but did notice that with ATT I needed a plan. Thanks for the info!

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Russ36363:
It occured when I was running the debloat rom yesterday, but I havent checked if its consistent with other roms as I switched to a different app for sms.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superchilpil:
Its a common issue among all roms so far

The only fix I know is to reboot
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burkett375:
ok, thats what I was wondering...I've had the issue for a while with many reboots, etc and its still there

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Syn Ack:
I've been trying to do this for a while now but it always keeps force closing no matter what edits I make.

I am trying to get my latest launcher, Xperia Arc Launcher for Samsung Galaxy S to be able to go into both portrait and sensor modes in the homescreen at the very least and hopefully the app drawer as well.

I have edited the Android Manifest in the apk to edit the line:

'android:screenOrientation=portrait'

edited to:

'android:screenOrientation=sensor'

And I thought that was the last thing to do it. Apparently not, help anyone?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Meltus:
Try putting it in each layout.xml. That's what i do.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>

:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mattix724:
So I could edit my launcher similar to this to achieve automatic orientation?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Meltus:
Depends.

In short, yes, but it would stretch horribly.

You'd need to create a portrait and landscape layout and then listen for when the orientation switches then change to a different layout.

I imagine so anyway, i've never actually tried it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Syn Ack:
So for now I can just try your first post and it will at least rotate?

EDIT - There are no layout.xml's in my launcher.apk file.....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kllrnohj:
Well, what is the actual stack trace? There is a bug somewhere in your code that is causing the crash, and it isn't the screenOrientation parameter in the manifest. Also, removing the attribute entirely is probably what you actually want (the "unspecified" value), as that is what will "Do The Right Thing" in regards to the sensor, keyboard sliders, etc...

That has nothing to do with the screen orientation, that just sets whether the linear layout places things horizontally or vertically.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Syn Ack:
So I should just set it like this?

android:screenOrientation=""

________________________

Doesn't matter because apparently I can't recompile the apk after editing AndroidManifest.xml. This sucks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dumraden:
Just to raise it from the dead. Thanks Meltus and kllrnohj for your valuable advice.

I have followed up from what you said, adding the android:screenOrientation:"sensor" to every xml file in the layout folders (actually just replaced <RelativeLayout with <RelativeLayout android:screenOrientation:"sensor" to make it quicker. I was getting an error if i wrote android:orientation and not android:screenOrientation

I manage to compile and all, but the .apk will just not launch. I have a second launcher just incase something goes wrong with the Sony Ericsson Home apk.

Any ideas? I even tried adding the following statement on AndroidManifest.xml:

but without any proper results.... :(

Happy new year btw :P
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pratyush.creed:
Set it to this :

android:screenOrientation="user"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] penyo_aka:
when I'm compile and then I'm decompile the result of my mod. When Im check at the line "android:screenOrientation="user" the result is not "user" but comeback again at "nosensor".

Any Idea why is that?

Is it always the same app? How much space is left on the ext partition? Have you tried wiping the dalvik cache?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Googloroid:
Thank you very much for your suggestion!

I wiped dalvik and now all works great. But why did it happen? (i mean rebooting). Could it be repeated in the future and how to avoid it?

For information: i tried 5 different apps - no matter. And i had about 600Mb free on the ext.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dortok:
I would like a ROM that has support for the dual mic. Are all the custom ROMs from the Desire HD base out of the question, like Revolution and LeeDroid? Do I have to use one made from the Inspire base?
[HTC Inspire 4G] zswielder:
what is dual mic?
[HTC Inspire 4G] CharlieBravo117:
He's referring to the noise-cancelling mic between the carmera and the flash.

And considering the Desire HD doesn't have once, I don't know what support DHD roms would include for it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ButtonBoy:
I am using CM7 nightly drops and there is simple command line support for the dual mic. Use "snd3254 -dspmode 0" from a terminal to get the dual mic mode.
[HTC Inspire 4G] equlizer:
So what is that hole there for on the DHD? Its in the exact same spot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dortok:
Do you have to run this every time you boot, or does the setting save for each successive boot?

The Telus Desire HD has it but not the Euro.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ButtonBoy:
Yes. It does not persist across boots.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charlesweaver:
Alright i have been trying and trying to get my phone to have the di05modem and be running the Dl30 froyo. I do not know what i am doing wrong nothing seems to be working and i have had to us odin restore files 3 times now. so here i am again

Phone curnnet setup STOCK

Model number

SCH-I500

Firmware version

2.1-update1

Baseband version

S:i500.04 V.DI01

Kernel version

2.6.29

Build number

SCH-I500.DI01

Problem one i am having is getting CWM installed. i try it through odin and it works one time then not the next, giving me the error of E: signature failed oh file i used was clockworkmod ALL.zip

Once i do it it to work i have use odin to then install DJ05modem.tar. It says everything went fine, i let it boot and it works, the modem then says v.dj05

So then i try to install the stock dj05 rom/system, file DJ05_stock.zip through CWM it says it works and all is good. But i then try to boot and it makes it to the samsung logo and then just keeps resting itself

THen i jsut reset everything back to stock using the odin recovery files and im back to square one as i bought the phone.

Yes i am rooted that works everytime without a hitch. so what am i donig wroung
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkirby11:
Im a little confused.

you say that ODIN works one time then does not work? You should only have to flash clockwork once.

It sounds like you are having a kernel problem. I am no dev but your description of the logo sounds a lot like what happened when I installed a voodoo kernel over a non voodoo ROM. I also do not see you mention the install of a kernel of any kind, you might search and see if there is a specific kernel needed for your rom. Much like the Super Clean roms have their own kernels that they work with.

Hopefully that can get you squared away in the right direction!

Hi guys i got a problem with wifi in 0.15 racht's rom. everry time i enable it is saying "connecting..." and it doesnt do anything but this is only happening this week but i havent do anything to the settings anyone have any idea of how to fix this?
[XPERIA X8 General] oisteink:
post logs. Or backup your data and re-flash the phone. Also; this is the dev forum even if it's hard to spot from the threads :)

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Success100:
ok so i know you can usually just use titanium backup to remove the respective lockscreen apk to get rid of the custom lock screen on android phones, that doesnt work on galaxy phones though. I HATEthe galaxy lockscreen. ive found some info on removing the samsung lockscreen from the captivate/vibrant/epic, but nothing on the 4G. Does anyone want to try to tackle it? Ive read somewhere that the same method wont work on the 4G.

There have been a few lockscreen threads but not just to remove the default lockscreen on the 4G.

thanks for looking
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Success100:
bump....anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TheShadowMan:
Its not that simple. You have to modify a lot of framework behaviors. I'm working on a mod but I'm stuck with one file and will probably contact hawkx to see if he can give me a hand.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Success100:
thanks for the response, I know it isnt easy, I was wondering if anyone started tackling it yet. I found a flashable zip for the vibrant and epic, but we havent got to that point on the 4G yet. Hopefully someone can figure it out..im sure im not the only gs4g user who hates the lockscreen!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Actually, if all you want is the Aosp lockscreen, it 1 word that needs to be changed.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TheShadowMan:
True. I was talking about additional lockscreens.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Success100:
krylon, would you mind helping with this when you get the 4G that is being sent to you?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
If it even was sent. Person said they sent it Monday morning, haven't seen him nor the package.
[Galaxy 3 General] Fritsii:
Hello,

The developer of clockworkmod recovery mentions on his website that he can port clockworkmod recovery to your device if you lend him your device for a couple of days.

Instead of lending him a device, we could maybe donate him one.

What are your opinions about this?
[Galaxy 3 General] Pauri:
lend it to him ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] shubhamchamaria:
lending is cheaper!!1
[Galaxy 3 General] Fritsii:
I am not willing to send my phone overseas, the shipment cost would be too high.

Plus, if we combine donations, the risk would be a lot smaller.

Not meaning to disagree... but even if he did all of those things I am not sure if his question would be answered.

Nobody knows unrevoked plans. At least from what I have heard.

There was a tweet stating they planned to work on the TB but I have not heard one word since then. And there was also some little disagreement between TeamAndIRC and unrevoked I believe... but I think they all acted like adults and moved past that moment.

Honestly though, where else is the OP supposed to pose this question? This would be the proper sub-forum if I am not mistaken. :confused::rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcase:
I hope to see unrevoked for the TB.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksizzle9:
I dont see why they would get into it, having unrevoked would only make yhe community grow.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmcclure937:
I am not knowledgeable of the entire situation... so I will not act like I understand everything and I do not wish to provoke further disagreement. I would like the community to work together and be constructive ;)

The last I heard was that one member of unrevoked did not agree with the root methods being used by TeamAndIRC in their guide. They did not feel they were safe, yet that have been proven otherwise. There are no bricked TBs on record when following TeamAndIRC's root method.

Hopefully the unrevoked team will be able to implement something for the TB like they have in the past for other devices. I know we are all looking forward to it!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnus_CA:
I also look forward to an unrevoked rom.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmcclure937:
:confused: not sure if this was a joke...

unrevoked does not specialize in custom ROMs. they specialize in one-click methods (unrevoked.com)
